Summary

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common functional gastrointestinal disorder, affecting 15% of the population. IBS is characterized by recurrent abdominal pain/discomfort without identifiable organic lesions. The pathophysiology of IBS can be multi factors which included immune activation/inflammatory reactions, visceral hypersensitivity, gastrointestinal dysmotility, changes in gut microflora, brain-gut dysfunction and food intolerance. Many short-chain carbohydrates can induce abdominal symptoms, and these carbohydrates were called, Fermentable, Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides and Monosaccharides and Polyols (FODMAPs). Around 50- 86% of the IBS patients will have a clinically meaningful response to the low-FODMAP diet. To evaluate the efficacy of low FODMAP diet. Experimental design: Health control and patients meeting the ROME III criteria for IBS will be enrolled in this study. The basic profiles, patient characteristics, intestinal microbiota profiles and MRI images will be obtained before and after low FODMAP diet intervention.
